A kitchen. To most of us it's just a place to whip up meals or gather around the dinner table. For Holly Zarcone—the owner and chef of Moon River Bakery—it's a science lab where she retreats every day to concoct new recipes. Within this hallowed space, Holly handcrafts all the bakery's sweets from the freshest ingredients possible, taking special care to banish artificial preservatives from every batch. She has perfected eight types of dessert bars including the popular campfire s'more, as well as nine types of biscotti and rainbow cookies crowned with chocolate ganache.
When it comes to customer service, Holly applies the same hands-on approach she prizes in her kitchen. Clients that order custom treats—which can be made for any occasion—will talk directly with the chef in charge of crafting the confections to ensure they receive the exact flavor profile and look they desire.

The candy kitchen's massive copper kettle predating World War II is certainly an eye catcher, but the nostalgic sights and smells of candy filling rows of white shelves is what overwhelms most people when they step inside Kilwins Chocolates. For more than two generations, the original recipes of founders Don and Katy Kilwin have been used to handcraft more than 75 confections such as chocolates, caramels, and specialty fudge. Aside from some newer equipment, head candy cook Bill Hoffman and his team still abide by Don’s candy-making methods and use original equipment when possible. Inside the old-fashioned candy shop, a burnished copper-kettle-fire mixer fashions each piece of peanut brittle, a cold room solidifies almond-toffee crunch, and a manatee that swallowed a freezer still makes every sea-foam candy. In addition to candy, Kilwins has created more than 32 flavors of original-recipe ice cream since 1985 with farm-fresh rBHT-free milk and cream from Michigan farms.
